Glitches

Nearly unlimited ''Mike'' Ability

Obtain the "mike" ability and find any of the secret switches used to open up more areas. Use the ability two times first and then use the third time on the secret switch. You must jump from above and be very close to the switch as you use the mike. If the glitch worked correctly, when it shows what item you have, it should display "00" for item usage and you can use the ability an additional 266 times. If it failed, then you either did it too early or hit the switch before you used the ability.

Permanent Copy Ability

Once you copy an enemies ability, press Start and Select at the same time. On the pause menu, exit the stage you're in. You'll know if the glitch worked if you have a copy ability but your state says you're normal. If you take damage, you will not lose the ability like usual.

Secret Splash Ability

To get it, you must have an ability that doesn't change your looks. Then, get hit and drop your power at the EXACT same time, and if done correctly, you should now have SPLASH ABILITY! Press B to...SPLASH! It doesn\'t hurt enemies though, and you can drop it like a normal ability, but when you inhale the ability star back, it gives you nothing. Fun, no?
